Hey. That's what everyone said about Hatton. Everyone thought he was a gimp who was fighting nobodies, yet he came out HARD and worked over Tszyu easily. you cant underestimate someone just because of the quality of their opposition.Originally posted by scapHow the hell can you argue with this...as much as I want to believe and tell myself that Arturo has a shot...bottom line is we are talking about two fighters on two seperate levels...
the only true way to predict a fight is to get a mental image of both the styles, what both of the guys instinctually do (gotta watch 10-15 fights on both guys to get this in your head) and imagine them colliding, then take chin, stamina, etc into accountability and you will have your prediction. I see Mayweather being overly defensive in the first round not taking any punches, but when Gatti lands that first shot, he isnt gonna **** around like corely. When Mayweather gets dazed, if theres 30 or more seconds left in the round, it's ****ING OVER! gatti will say **** my stamina and how i feel and run up on you with a quick 15 power hook combo.., ...trust your instincts.
I learned a long time ago to trust my instincts...Last edited by Slipx; 06-23-2005, 02:39 PM.Comment

im not lying, i doubt gatti will win, i hope he does, cuz im a canadian, and a huge gatti fan, and above all, SOMEONE HAS TO SHUT MAYWEATHER UP. the gy talks so much ****, and he would've headlined ppv after ppv, if he was more respectful, he would have more fans.Comment

Floyd has alot of skills, I doubt Gatto could win, but if Castillo gave him trouble than maybe he has a chance.Originally posted by jose

Styles make fights, and sometimes an unlikely opponent can win against a champion. I'm not sure if Gatti has that style, but we'll see. Gatti basically needs to fight the same fight as Castillo - push Mayweather on the ropes and go for the body. I think Gatti will pressure him more aggressively, and I'm not sure if that will be better or worse for him. Gatti is no slower than Castillo, so I think he can put Mayweather on the ropes, but we'll see. I think Mayweather could knock him out with his precision punching. If it happens, it will be a counter shot that Gatti doesn't see coming. I'm really excited for this fight. I hope it isn't a one-sided match like Winky vs Tito. I think it will be better than that, competitively.Originally posted by IwatchBoxingFloyd has alot of skills, I doubt Gatto could win, but if Castillo gave him trouble than maybe he has a chance.Comment

Same here rooting for Gatti but Mayweather will probably win. If Gatti can use what Emmanuel Augustus and Castillo did and take strategies from their fights he will get Mayweather. They both showed that Mayweather can be had. I think that his plan of attack is the way to go about it. You can move your head all day but you can't move your body. Ask Chris Byrd about his fight with Ibeabuchi.Comment

Im a big Gatti fan, but I agree with boxerdog. He will go in there thinking he can box with Mayweather. Big Mistake. His game plan should be to go in there and balls to the wall. and I doubt he will do it. He will try and hang with Floyd till the last couple rounds and then try to make something happen. But he will be to worn out to land the hardshots in succession. I predict a night of yelling at the T.V. saying "Goddamnit Gatti throw some shots!!"Comment
